We did some extra work on Monday. James had made few more tepees.
Research
I carried on the patterns. This time, my patterns featured on the Chinese geometric patterns that people frequently saw it on the traditional Chinese buildings.
In any well-established culture, we can find intriguing patterns that have a strong mathematical background. In China, the well-known Chinese lattices are often works of high artistic value and in many of them, we can find principles of Euclidean and transformation geometry.

I actually found a great source that explored selected examples of Chinese lattices. They showed how to assign a plane symmetry group signature to a lattice and demonstrated how Chinese lattices can be modelled using Geometer's sketchpad.
Today, I've explored a new pattern from west culture and incorporated it into the project. I've been explored the new knowledge and assimilated the things I've seen from online.
